Trump said that Venezuela’s new leader, Delcy Rodríguez, would help the United States run Venezuela. She quickly said the opposite.
Trump said Delcy Rodríguez was sworn in as Venezuela’s interim president and would act as a partner in letting the United States run the country.
“She’s essentially willing to do what we think is necessary to make Venezuela great again,” he said.
Less than two hours later, Ms. Rodríguez — who was Nicolás Maduro’s vice president — delivered a televised address to Venezuela that made clear she viewed the United States as an illegal invader that must be rejected.
She has bigger balls than me, brave but I don’t think this will help her or Venezuela.
Regardless, it’s nice to see people stand up against Goliath
The US is only an imaginary powerhouse. The only real useful tool at our disposal are our nuclear weapons. The US hasnt won a war since WW2, and even then we were given such an upper hand in that fight by joining late and the Soviets changing sides, theres no shot we would have even won that war without Russia.
I was with you in the first sentence but you’re argument collapsed into fantasy, the worst part of which was the eurocentric view of the war. Many historians consider the start of WW2 to be the Japanese invasion of China in 1938.
For an imaginary powerhouse, they sure pulled off the special forces operation of my lifetime, no casualties and kidnapping a President and his wife so he doesn’t get lonely.
That’s a lot of resources to pull that off, satellites, AWACs, God knows what else. It’s a flex.
Wasnt a port bombed? Are you sure there are no civilian casualties? It also seems like the operation was successful but the end goal of installing a puppet government is going the wrong direction
No, I’m not even positive that was Maduro in photo. I’m just taking their claims for what they are worth.
Power isnt about inflicting death and destruction its about getting others to willingly do what you want. Americans used to understand this, once.
Okay allow me to rephrase to MILITARY POWER or MURDER POWER or whatever you wish with regards to death and destruction.
USA is pretty good, don’t you think?
The US is a mere paper tiger in front of-wait, no, no, NOOOOOOO!
Someone tell me what the image is, I am afraid
A planet sized paper tiger looking at earth in space.
A gigantic paper tiger next to the earth. The earth is smaller
You can’t really believe that.
Which part
Yeah, we’re so imaginary we’ve kept Taiwan free and the CCP contained all this time, among dozens of other things. Opposing forces have said going against our special forces is like fighting against aliens because we’re so advanced, methodical and well trained.
Contained? Corporate America literally empowered China into the powerhouse it is today while naively believing they would remain submissive, compliant, and dependent on our technical expertise.
What does “contained” mean? China is probably the most influential global power right now due to economic pressure that the US ceded to them. They dont exactly need Taiwan for anything, why would they go to war over that country and risk thermonuclear destruction of the earth?
And Im unaware of any forces talking about our special forces, i dont go looking for that information.
IDK if decades of financing the CCP can be called “containing”. But thank god the capitalists sabotaged the USA empire, we cruelly need something to counter this superpower
